Cori Gonzalez-Macuer

In that time he's won the Billy T James Award, appeared on film and television, and performed in Australia, America, England, Scotland, Singapore and as far as the Middle East and South America, as well as appearing in Wellington Paranormal and the NZ Comedy Gala.

Lesa Macleod-Whiting

She has been a regular on the Wellington improv scene since 2016 and began doing stand-up in July 2020, going on to nab the Runner Up spot at the Wellington Raw Comedy Quest.

Winner - Best Newcomer - 2020 Wellington Comedy Awards

Whangārei's own, Kipling DC

Having won ‘BEST JOKE!’ at the 2020 Welly Comedy Awards he guarantees that he has at least one good joke! Audiences are always a little unsure about what is going to happen next as A: Kipling has no idea what he’s going to do next, and B: he quite literally seems to be pulling this all out of thin air.

A captain of silly, and also the 4th best comedian to come out of Whangarei Boys’ High School since Billy T James and 2 other guys

Jerome Chandrahasen

Jerome Chandrahasen is a regular performer in the NZ International Comedy Festival, the NZ Fringe, and has MC'd various events around the country. He has taken his solo shows to the Edinburgh Fringe, the NZ Fringe, Nelson, and a nice little pub up in Kapiti.

"Chandrahasen's calibre as a comedian is brilliant; don't miss anything he might do in the future" - Nelson Mail
